It's a journey to get fully free and open sourced. I'm 5+ years into it and only earlier this year began running privacy and security focused software on all my devices. I love learning and the more I learn the more anonymous I'm able to be, so I enjoy it. Plus, fuck any company selling my data without me making a cent!

Aurora is back up and running. I just logged in anonymously using it and I updated apps with it yesterday. If it finally comes to it I may just have to sign up for a google account and use it solely on Aurora, but I'll try anything else first.

was it? I heard the developers fixed anonymous sign-in after google messed with it

it is not working again :(. I can't enter there, and aurora doesn't say anything

It isn't "closed", is it? From the issue on the GitLab repo it's rate limited, but I still managed to install apps with Aurora yesterday.

Rate limits only apply to searching. You can still install apps by searching for them on play.google.com and opening the page with Aurora.

What I did is make an account specifically for aurora only
